Ordered to allow use of ball lock couplers with clearance inside keg fridge. Note that a tailpiece gasket was included already inserted in the female side of the elbow (not shown in picture on website).

I converted a low profile perlick sankey coupler to ball lock but it was now too wide for 5.25 gal kegs. So I used these to keep the ball lock posts vertical so it now fits all commercial kegs without needing the normal coupler head space in my keezer.

Works as it should. Now if you could make it swivel, then it would be even better!

I use a sankey coupler with pin-lock fitting adapters on the gas and product line so I can switch between commerical and homebrew kegs, and the product line was always cramped against the ceiling of the kegerator. I put one of these on the product line and the adapter right after it and I magically have an extra 3 inches of room above the keg. Simple solution that works great.

Great piece. I'm using it to connect a tap extender rod to my corney keg, which requires the 90 degree angle that this provides.

Great low profile fits in Keg with room to spare

perfect fit, easy fix to a height issue??

The only way to go when you have a low overhead room. You don't want to pinch your beer line!

Excellent product. I needed to fit a 50L German keg into my kegerator with next to no vertical clearance. This elbow only needs about 5/8†clear between the top of the coupler and the roof of the Kegerator. Worked like a charm. As a reference: my kegerator is 27 3/4†clear height inside. With this elbow and a 50L German keg, it just barely fits (it needed a little encouragement!)

Should I use teflon tape on the male threads on the couplers and elbow?
No. I wouldn’t use Teflon tape.I used rubber or nylon washer type gaskets similar to co2 connections
Yes add Teflon tape I did when replacing mine and have had no issues.
I haven’t used Teflon tape and (knock on wood) haven’t had any issues with leaks. I use standard gaskets like I would when connecting the liquid line to the coupler.
No use a Tailpiece gasket. Item# D2511
No need to. You’ll use coupler / tailpiece gaskets (D1755) to seal off any leaks.
There should be no need to use teflon tape as a standard rubber washer should be used as part of the connection.
Those fittings usually have a flat washer on the big flat face of the coupler so threads should not be part of seal
Yes

Is this suitable for an A-type 5/8" coupler? Thanks!
I used it with a German Slider which is an "A". Nice product!
This is standard beer thread. Should fit any commercial coupler or shank.
